If the government wants to raise significant revenue to rescue the country from debt incurred by Dorien and Covid it has to look no further than nationalizing these gambling operations.

Quite frankly it's obscene that these "webshops" are even allowed to exist in the hands of private, questionable operators. The reality is that over time, these operations have hijacked the legitimate national interests of the citizens of this country. Proceeds from a de facto national lottery, which is what "web shops" are should be returned to the citizens of the country in the form of better roads, working traffic lights, sports, education, health care etc. This is the policy of 99.99% of other countries in the world. Only in the Bahamas have we allowed this revenue stream for the government to be hijacked and diverted to the puerile and opaque interests of a handful of private operators.
